ABSTRACT: Metal catalyzed post-Ugi cyclization of bis-amides is reported in this study. Exposure of bis-amides to Pd(II) catalyst triggered the formation of seven-membered benzoxazepinones. This investigation established that changing the catalyst to a Echavarren’s gold(I) turned off cyclization to seven member ring and turned on 6-exo-dig annulations to afford family of sixmembered benzoxazinones. To support the proposed mechanisms, quantum chemical based density functional theory calculations have been performed and validated. This novel method obtained molecular complexity up to four modular inputs and divergence of two different skeletons. 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques and single crystal X-ray diffraction established the proposed structures.



INTRODUCTION Diversity oriented synthesis (DOS) is defined as one of the most concise approaches for the synthesis of highly skeletal diverse small molecules, which are ubiquitous in pharmaceuticals, agrochemical, and complex natural products. Generation of skeletal diversity in a small number of steps is commonly known as reagent-based differentiation, where two or more compounds are obtained and subjected to a common starting molecule in diverse reaction conditions.1 Although the benefits of skeletal diverse process are evident, their development posed the major challenge in this realm. In this context, isocyanide-based multicomponent reactions (IMCRs) are a well recognized approach toward the synthesis of diverse heterocycles.2 In particular, Ugi four-component reaction and Passerini three-component reaction have a long history in organic chemistry and are still of enormous interest for three reasons: efficiency, diversity, and their unexplored chemical space.3 However, linear peptide backbone of the Ugi and Passerini MCR products clearly requires novel methods to synthesize more promising candidates for biological screening in a way that was neither possible nor required before. Though, chemo-selective intramolecular cyclization of Ugi reaction product comprising multiple nucleophilic/electrophilic sites, remains a challenging task. Therefore, a method that involves © 2017 American Chemical Society

the conditions-based divergence in IMCRs and generates multiple molecular scaffolds from the same starting materials by merely applying different metal catalysts should drive the diversity oriented synthesis into unexplored dimensions. Given that, DOS involving IMCR can furnish highly skeletal diverse scaffolds, we anticipated that tuning of metal catalyst, such as palladium and gold, will induce different modes of cyclization in Ugi reaction product (Figure 1).4 In this regard, pioneering work was carried out by Schreiber and co-workers in skeletal DOS to establish a diverse collection of small molecules using isocyanides.5 Extending this concept, progress has been made with several examples from Erik group relying on the distinct dichotomy in product distribution for the synthesis of divergent heterocycles utilizing IMCRs.6 Furthermore, the group of Dai developed Ullmann diaryl etherification as an efficient protocol for the post-Ugi annulation for the synthesis of dibenz[b,f][1,4]oxazepine scaffold.7 In addition, Zhu group developed a regiocontrolled Pd-catalyzed domino sequence for the synthesis of functionalized benzodiazepinediones.8 In contrast, reaction pathways that can be changed by tuning the metal catalysts thus giving rise to completely different types of products from the Received: August 22, 2017 Published: November 28, 2017 57

same reactants still remain much less explored.9 Benzoxazepinones and benzoxazinones10 are ubiquitous heterocycles found in many biologically important molecules. In particular, benzoxazepinones could serve as a multidrug-resistance modulating agent, and central nervous system agents.11 As a part of our continuing interest over exploring the reactivity of isocyanide,12 we attempted to develop a highly desirable 7endo-dig mode cyclization of 5 using palladium catalyst. We have realized gold catalyzed 6-exo-dig cyclization for the

synthesis of benzoxazinone 7 from Ugi reaction product 5. We report the results herein (Figure 1).



RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The cyclization precursors 5 (Figure 1) were first synthesized via an Ugi reaction using alkyne, 2-hydroxyaniline, aldehyde, and isocyanide in methanol without any catalysts or additives at ambient temperature. The Ugi products obtained as a pure solid without column chromatography were directly used for further reaction. First we choose N-(2-(tert-butylamino)-2-oxo58

1-(p-tolyl)ethyl)-N-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-phenylpropiolamide (5a) as model substrate to examine the regioselectivity (6-exodig vs 7-endo-dig cyclization mode) of this intramolecular cyclization using palladium and gold catalysts. The results are summarized in Table 1. From this substrate, two different products were expected (6a, 7a) (Table 1) and the mode of cyclization involved oxygen atom as the nucleophile in both of them. In order to verify our hypothesis, the regioselectivity was first examined using a base (K2CO3) mediated cyclization which afforded 27 and 8% yields of 6a and 7a, respectively, after 48 h (Table 1, entry 1). Similarly Cs2CO3 gave the desired product 6a and 7a in 23 and 9% yields, respectively (Table 1, entry 2). Well separated products on TLC were isolated by column chromatography and 2D NMR spectroscopy was used to confirm structural differences between the two products, 6a and 7a (for detail see Supporting Information, Figure S6). Furthermore, activation of the alkyne subunit (5a), by screening of a handful of palladium and gold catalysts revealed that two cyclization pathways were operative leading to the formation of benzoxazepinone (6a) and benzoxazinone (7a) selectively (Table 1). The outcome of Table 1, entries 3−5 led us to conclude that, Pd[0] and Pd[II] catalyzed reaction

proceeded with low yields even after using 20 mol % catalyst, though 7-endo-dig cyclization product (6a) was isolated exclusively. In addition, the Pd(OCOCF3)2 catalyst clearly promoted the formation of benzoxazepinones derivatives 6a in higher yield (76%) with exclusive 7-endo-dig selectivity (Table 1, entry 6). Pd(OAc)2 preferentially provided benzoxazepinones derivatives (32% yield), however low yield restricted us to use the catalyst further (Table 1, entry 7). We finally found that cationic Pd catalyst, Pd(CH3CN)4(BF4)2 (Table 1, entry 10) was not only the most efficient in controlling the regioselectivity for the formation of benzoxazepinone derivative (6a) with low catalytic loading but afforded the desired product in good yields (84%). No desired product was isolated when base was omitted from standard reaction conditions (Table 1, entry 11). Notably, toluene stood out to be the better solvent in comparison to DCE, and DMF in terms of selectivity and yield (Table 1, entries 12 and 13). Aiming to promote the switch in regioselective O-cyclization, several other Au(I) and Au(III) salts were also screened (Table 1, entries 14 and 18). Interestingly, experiments with the cationic gold catalysts, complete switch in regioselectivity was observed with gold(III) chloride (Table 1, entry 14) without using base (K2CO3). Use 61

delivered the products in good yields (58 and 85%). However, due to electron-donating group present on the phenyl substituent of the alkyne (Table 2, entries 13 and 14), 6m and 6n were formed in moderately lower yields of 62 and 51%, respectively. The scope of the 6-exo-dig annulation was then explored by employing Echavarren’s gold(I) catalyst [JohnPhosAu(CH3CN)]SbF6 (Table 2). A small library of 13 derivatives was prepared using the optimized synthetic protocol. Most of the tested bis-amides (5a−5n) derived from Ugi reaction underwent cyclization to afford the corresponding products (7a−7n) in good yields and with exclusive exo-dig mode of selectivity. Methyl (7a), methoxy (7c, 7e, 7h, 7i, 7m, 7n), cyano (7f), and bromo (7g) groups on aldehyde derived Ugi substrates were well tolerated under these reaction conditions. 81% yield was obtained from Ugi adducts derived from substituted 2-aminophenol (Table 2, entry 7l). The high efficiency was maintained, when different isocyanides -derived Ugi reaction product were used (Table 2, entries 7h and 7i). It is noteworthy that the 6-exo-dig annulation products were obtained exclusively in all reactions. A single crystal of 6f and 7d were obtained from the CH2Cl2/hexane solution, and X-ray structure analysis verified the proposed structure (Figure 2). To validate the experimental observations for the 7- and 6membered products using Pd- and Au-catalyzed cyclization processes, we have carried out quantum chemical based density functional theory calculations. Depending on the nucleophilic attack on Cα or Cβ by the phenolic oxygen, 6- or 7-membered products are formed, respectively. The equilibrium structures of

of 5 mol% Echavarren’s gold(I) catalyst [JohnPhosAu(CH3CN)]SbF6 (Table 1, entry 16) selectively afforded benzoxazinones derivative 7a in 74% yield. In comparison to this, only 28% yield was observed when the reaction was catalyzed using Ph3PAuCl (Table 1, entry 17). Finally, the use of in situ generated cationic gold catalyst (Table 1, entries 18 and 19) gave the desired product in satisfactory yield. To evaluate the scope of the optimized process (Table 1, entries 10 and 16) for the benzoheterocycle library construction, Ugi reactions were carried out following the usual procedure13 and subjected to intramolecular cyclization (Table 2). First, the scope of the 7-endo-dig cyclization was examined for benzoxazepinones derivatives. Various substituents on the alkynes, isonitriles, aldehydes, and amines were well tolerated with high selectivity (Table 2). As shown in Table 2, several aldehyde components (entries 1 and 9) carrying either electron-donating or electron-withdrawing substituents have been successfully engaged in this sequence and afforded the cyclized adducts in moderate to excellent yields (51−87%). Though electron-withdrawing groups, such as cyno and bromo (5f and 5g), on aldehydes of bis-amides furnished relatively lower yield (65 and 67%, respectively) for 7-endo cyclization. Further diversity in the products was introduced by using other isocyanides substrates, albeit, no specific electronic effect on the reaction yield was observed when tert-butylisonitrile (6a−6g), and cyclohexyl isonitrile (6h) were subjected to reaction, provided the products in good yields. Additionally, substituting the aryl group in the 2-aminophenol derived Ugi substrate by a tert-butyl and methyl group (Table 2, entries 11 and 12) 62

9. Regeneration of the Pd catalyst from the σ-complex under the optimized conditions allowed the formation of benzoxazepinones 6b. When cationic gold was used, the nucleophilic attack of the phenolic oxygen on the activated alkyne occurred in an exo-dig fashion generating intermediate 11, which upon protodeauration forms substituted 1,4-benzoxazin-3-one 7b.

the reactive intermediates 8 showed that both the Pd and Au are more localized on the Cα forming stronger bonds (bond lengths, Pd−Cα: 2.042 Å and Au−Cα: 2.053 Å) than Cβ (bond lengths, Pd−Cβ: 2.860 Å and Au−Cβ: 2.816 Å). Two separate potential energy surface (PES) scans along the reaction coordinates (phenolic oxygen and Cα or Cβ) revealed interesting facts. Near the transition state (Figure 3), during the attack of phenolic oxygen to Cα, both the catalysts hopped to the Cβ making Cα more electrophilic along with change in hybridization from sp to sp2. For the case of Pd-catalyzed reaction, both the attacks on Cα and Cβ are possible leading two intervening transition states between reactants and corresponding products. For Pd-catalyzed reaction, the Gibbs free energy barrier in 6 and 7-membered transition states are found, 17.8 and 13.2 kcal/mol, respectively. Both the energy barriers show, following to the experimental observations, 7-membered cyclization is more favorable than 6-membered for Pd-catalyst. On the other hand, for Au-catalyzed reaction, 6-membered transition states is found exclusively which is followed by 6membered cyclic product. The PES scan for the search of the 7membered products showed no intervening 7-membered transition state and thus it can be concluded that 7-membered product formation is not probable for Au catalyst. The Gibbs free energy barrier for 6-membered ring is found 18.5 kcal/mol which is easily achievable in the reaction conditions mentioned earlier. Thus, it can be concluded that theoretical calculations fully support the experimental observations for the formation for Pd-catalyzed 7-membered and Au-catalyzed 6-membered cyclization processes. Although the precise mechanism for this reaction is not clear, a plausible catalytic cycle is illustrated in Scheme 1 on the basis of computational studies.14 Initially, the metal catalyst activated the alkyne π-bond of 5b to form a metal π-complex. In case of palladium the 7-endo mode cyclization was observed by the intramolecular nucleophilic attack of the phenoxide oxygen at the alkyne carbon preferentially, to form a palladium σ-complex



CONCLUSIONS



EXPERIMENTAL SECTION

In summary, a catalyst-controlled divergent regioselective cyclization of bis-amides was developed by integrating the modularity of the Ugi reaction. The Ugi adducts were in turn prepared via reaction of alkyne, isocyanides, aldehyde, and 2hydroxyanilines. A variety of substituted benzoxazepinones and benzoxazinones were assembled using Pd and Au catalysts, respectively. It is presumable that the rich chemistry of the post-Ugi cyclization may be exploited for the further elaboration of the heterocycles into important natural products and bioactive molecules.

Materials and Methods. All reactions were carried out in oven- or flame-dried glassware unless otherwise noted. Except as otherwise indicated, all reactions were magnetically stirred and monitored by analytical thin layer chromatography (TLC) using precoated silica gel glass plates (0.25 mm) with a F254 indicator. Visualization was accomplished by UV light (254 nm). Flash column chromatography was performed using silica gel (100−200 mesh). Yields refer to pure compounds, unless otherwise noted. Commercial grade reagents and solvents were used without further purification. 1H and 13C NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker 500 MHz NMR spectrometer using CDCl3/DMSO-d6 as a solvent for deuterium locking, with temperature at 298 K. Chemical shifts are given in parts per million with TMS as an internal reference. J values are given in hertz. 13C NMR spectra were recorded as solutions in CDCl3 with complete proton decoupling, 13C {1H NMR}. Mass spectra were recorded on a Bruker MicroTOF Q II mass spectrometer. The solutions were made/diluted in acetonitrile/ H2O (3:7) and directly injected to the ESI source through a pump. General Procedure for Syntheses of Ugi Products (5a−5n). To a solution of aldehyde (1 mmol) in methanol (3 mL) were added successively amine (1.0 equiv), acid (1.0 equiv), and isonitrile (1.0 equiv) in a round-bottom flask equipped with a magnetic stir bar. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 24−48 h in round-bottom flask. After completion of the reaction, solid was precipitate and separated by filtration. Solid was washed with ether and used without further purification. General Procedure for the Synthesis of Benzoxazepinones (6a− 6n) Using Pd (II) Catalyst. To a dry screw capped glass vial Pd(CH3CN)4(BF4)2 (10 mol %), K2CO3 (1 equiv) were loaded along with dry toluene (2 mL). Ugi product 5a−5n (0.2 mmol) was added. The reaction vial was evacuated, backfilled with nitrogen, and was stirred at 80 °C for 24 h. After completion, the reaction mixture was cooled, directly loaded over a silica gel column, and chromatographed (1:3 EtOAc in hexane) to afford compounds. The structures of the compounds were confirmed by NMR, single crystal X-ray analysis, and HRMS data. General Procedure for the Synthesis of Benzoxazinones (7a−7n) Using Au (I) Catalyst. To a screw capped vial equipped with a magnetic stir bar was added (JohnPhos)Au(CH3CN)SbF6 (5 mol %) along with DCE (2 mL). Ugi product 5a−n (0.2 mmol) was added. The reaction vial was evacuated, backfilled with nitrogen, and was stirred at 50 °C in oil bath for 24 h. After completion, reaction mixture was partitioned between EtOAc (100 mL) and water (50 mL). Organic layer was washed with brine (50 mL), dried over sodium sulfate, and evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue obtained was purified by silica gel column chromatography (10−30% EtOAc in hexane) to afford pure compounds.

Computational Details. Explorations of the proposed mechanism are carried out using first-principles based quantum mechanical methods. The reaction of molecule 5b is considered with two different catalysts as mentioned above. To study the Pd catalyzed reaction Pd(CH3CN)3+2 molecule is considered as catalyst, and for the Au catalyzed reaction Au(CH3CN)+ is considered as the catalyst for simplicity, keeping the framework of 5b unchanged, which mimics the actual molecule well. All stationary points including transition states, reactant intermediates and product intermediates are fully optimized using tight gradient convergence criteria with ultrafine numerical grid using density functional theory based hybrid B3LYP15 functional in conjunction with 6-31G(d) basis sets16 for all except Pd and Au atoms where LanL2DZ basis17 in conjunction with effective core potential functions are used. At each equilibrium geometry harmonic vibrational frequencies were calculated to authorize each structure as true minima. All the transition states were characterized by only one imaginary frequency representing the respective reaction coordinate. All the energy barriers given here are the Gibbs free energies to account for the temperature effects in the reactions. All the theoretical calculations have been performed using the Gaussian 16 program package.18 N-(2-(tert-Butylamino)-2-oxo-1-(p-tolyl)ethyl)-N-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-phenylpropiolamide (5a).
